Well, yep, it is comming nicely... Luckily for me, money are no issue on this one, so I can went with whatever I damn well please

...

And since I get fed up waiting for the "plain" Asus Z97-Pro board, I ordred in Friday (5pm, BTW) on stock available Asus Z97-Pro (WiFi ac) version. It have the WiFi that I will not use at all, and cost a little bit more, but that was no issue. By Saturday 10am I was holding it in my hands, lol Talk about speedy delivery.

I still lacking the rams, some fans and the rams. Yet I still managed to made a first burn-in test of the mainboard to see, if things works. And they do:

Just the the CPU, M.12 SSD and cooling the board startup. It show inicialization and then hang up on the red led on rams (CPU led passed, VGA is not there, so no test... the board has PLENTY of indicators, almost like a xmass tree) and FE code. The manual says that FA to FF are "reserved for future AMI bios error messages." Well, whatever. It is pretty clear what is missing right now.

However I let it run for hours to see, on what temps are the important parts (CPU cooler, CPU VRM heatsinks, SB heatsink, SSD...) will be in iddle / BIOS waiting. I was wery surprised, witch was the hottest part of the "computer" after some hours. I wonder, if anyone can quess it...
